pygame-minesweeper 1.0.11

Minesweeper game implemented in python using pygame

Minesweeper

Minesweeper is a single-player puzzle computer game. The objective of the game is to clear a rectangular board containing hidden "mines" or bombs without detonating any of them, with help from clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field. The game originates from the 1960s, and has been written for many computing platforms in use today. It has many variations and offshoots.

This simple implementation of minesweeper is done in Python using the game library pygame.

The core functionality of the game can be found here and the python package for the sprite sheet can be found here

Motivation

The motivation of these minesweeper projects is to learn the tooling around python projects, how to create CI/CD pipelines for python projects, and distributing python eggs.

Getting Started

Installation

python -m pip install pygame-minesweeper
# or
pip install pygame-minesweeper

Start a game

# if $HOME/.local/bin/ is defined in $PATH
minesweeper <basic | intermediate | expert | custom>
# or
python -m minesweeper <basic | intermediate | expert | custom>`

Boards

scheme	rows	cols	mines
Basic	10	10	10
Intermediate	16	16	40
expert	6	30	99
custom	--rows	--cols	--mines

Show high Score

minesweeper --show-high-score
# or
python -m minesweeper --show-high-score

Start a game with a different sprite sheet

The --tile-sprite, --face-sprite, and --score-sprite parameters define a set of sprite sheets that are available from this python package.

# if $HOME/.local/bin/ is defined in $PATH
minesweeper -h
# or
python -m minesweeper -h

#stdout
positional arguments:
  {basic,intermediate,expert,custom}

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --rows ROWS
  --cols COLS
  --mines MINES
  --tile-sprite {2.0,2.9,95,2000,fiorito-2000,fiorito-monochrome,fiorito-xp,monochrome}
  --score-sprite {2000,monochrome}
  --face-sprite {2000,monochrome}
  --sprite {2000,monochrome}
  --show-high-score

If the --sprite flag is set it will override the other flags like --tile-sprite, --score-sprite and --face-sprite.

# Starting an *Expert* game with a full monochrome spritesheet
minesweeper expert --sprite=monochrome
# or
python -m minesweeper expert --sprite=monochrome
